History


Mexico's Constitution of Apatzingán was signed in the city in 1814, during the Mexican War of Independence in the Viceroyalty of New Spain against the Spanish Empire.

Six federal police officers were charged with murder on August 21, 2019 for their supposed involvement in a police operation that left nine dead on January 6, 2015 in Apatzingán. At least nine people died and several were injured when police fired against members and sympathizers of self-defense groups who had taken over the municipal palace.[2]

Despite having an annual precipitation of 752 millimetres (29.6 in), Apatzingán has a semi-arid climate (Köppen climate classification BSh) due to its hot temperatures and high evaporation rates.[3]
